Dalton Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Hey Dalton! Thanks for catching back up and the compliments. The podcast was fun to do and I think just adds a bit more of a look into everything, plus it's something I keep and look back on. (I'm weird). The whole thing with champions right now for me is figuring out who is going to be there. I operate this game thinking that WWF and WCW are right around the corner from taking my talent. The true Heyman-perspective I think.. haha. I think my favorite part of the podcast is trying to put yourself in 1997 without knowing the future. "I wish there was some site that we could all watch videos on." "Paul Heyman isn't so sure about this whole internet thing." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BHK1978 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Little Guido and Paul Roma were the F.B.I. team I never knew I wanted to read about until the WWF scooped up Paul. Screw you, Vince! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobin834 Posted January 11, 2021 Author Share Posted January 11, 2021 Love it man! I was a huge ECW fan back in the days, my cousin was a tapetrader in Germany so it was "easy" to watch some ECW back then. And i have to say i love the asthetics of your diary, it's different, much more effort to do and still easy to follow and read. Thumbs up! Dalton just send me the link to your podcast, i love it. I'm a podcaster myself in Germany and if my english would be at least 5% that good i would love to do stuff like that in my diary, too:D. Awesome! Great idea, keep it on man! Thank you for your comments. I hope you follow along. The review I am about to post after this post should help catch you up a bit. Just to echo the sentiments of others the effort going ibto this with content and presentation is exceptional. So, my hats off to you, fella. You deserve all the plaudits. I was never the biggest ECW fan back in the day but you're definitely capturing the era. Thank you so much! Appreciate you stopping in and checking in on this one despite not being a huge ECW fan. Cheers. I think my favorite part of the podcast is trying to put yourself in 1997 without knowing the future. "I wish there was some site that we could all watch videos on." "Paul Heyman isn't so sure about this whole internet thing." Yeah, just trying to kayfabe point out things that aren't there we take for granted as well. I've had a lot of response on the podcast and may make it a weekly thing with other promotions news as well (like the iwrestling.com updates). Mixed about it, so it may wait for now. We'll see. I have a lot of desire to be more creative with this and podcasting sure beats a whole other journal/diary haha. Little Guido and Paul Roma were the F.B.I. team I never knew I wanted to read about until the WWF scooped up Paul. Screw you, Vince! Thanks, I actually thought it'd help Guido develop a bit, credibility to the team etc. I was on fence though - and probably leaning to pass - because he is an ego maniac. My locker room is in bad enough shape haha. I think would have been a good team though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BHK1978 Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 I have to say between the podcast and the graphics, you really are taking this to the next level. You made something as mundane as a diary recap look fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This all looks great so I'm definitely going to try follow! Its funny because as I was doing this post I thought, maybe someone just checking this out will benefit from this. Then your comment is the first to come up, haha. I am glad to have you on here. Appreciate you checking it out. Great recap, as always beautiful visuals You're the man tobin Thanks man, right back at you! Appreciate it. I think we have a lot of great writers and diaries here, so sometimes it's good to get a refresher to give you some perspective. I have to say between the podcast and the graphics, you really are taking this to the next level. You made something as mundane as a diary recap look fantastic. I appreciate the kind words man. Glad you're enjoying both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobin834 Posted January 13, 2021 Author Share Posted January 13, 2021 The official ECW Hardcore Podcast from iWrestling.com This week we go over the problems in the ECW locker room, we review the ECW television show and TWO NEW MATCHES added for Heatwave '97 and we have the exclusive news this week!!!

BigJ Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 As always, great mean of enriching your diary The Dr. Death/Taz match was predictible, of course, but sometimes predictable is so darn good. This match is gonna be awesome. I'm not sure where you're going with Taz once he's done with this match tho, seems like maybe some sort of stipulation rematch vs. Shane. But then what? RVD? FUNK?? There are plenty of possible roads, I love that If I may suggest something, perhaps inserting the overall notes of the segments/matches by having Justin Clayton rate them on a 5 star scale or something? I think it might give even more depth to this, while giving us a peak into your game and keepin it kayfabe. Don't know if that's something you considered or even if that would be a good idea, but just thought about that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texasrangers13 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Loved the recap and podcast episode. Seeing Corino as a rookie is wild to me considering that he felt like a really big name only a couple years later. Will be fun to see if you can get him over a bit. Brian Lee is a guy I've never loved, but you've made me take him seriously and view him as a real "champ" (Which I love). Keep it up!

I actually feel the same way about Brian Lee as you do, so I took this on as sort of a challenge. As I write for him I'm finding that I like him even more.

Blodyxe Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 It would be so weird to have a quiet ECW locker room. Probably the boys need more poker nights, alcohol, and of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He fits their mentality, just as Terry Funk did as well. I can see the brick-wall, dimly lit, promos by Roberts and it would have been awesome to see/hear. Not to mention, just think of the work Roberts and Raven could have done together (either on the same side or opposite).

I always thought Jake should have been there - and he actually was for real for a little bit, a very little bit. Raven actually looked up to Roberts and Raven's whole sit in the corner routine is a homage to Roberts I would later read.

Dalton Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Sucks to see Saturn shooting himself in the foot. I'd hate to see the Eliminators gone. Maybe some time off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigJ Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 No Perry, NOOOOOOOOO I don't want the Eliminators to be over!... although that MIGHT open the door for a dudley title run, which i'm all about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blodyxe Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Wow, that locker room rating is brutal. Didn't think it was that bad. Won't fix that with waffles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
